COMPANY: The Garland Co., Cleveland

THE PRODUCT: Quick-Slope modified acrylic cementitious material

Garland, a maker of roofing and building maintenance products for the commercial, industrial and institutional markets, describes Quick-Slope as “an easy-to-apply material that redirects or disperses harmful standing water on low-slope modified bitumen roofing.”
The Quick-Slope material “is designed to reduce and redirect water toward existing scuppers or drains,” according to Garland. “It can also be used to provide increased localized slope.”
The company says Quick-Slope “is a cost-effective alternative to adding drains or crickets, and provides a tenacious bond to new or existing smooth or mineral roof systems.” It also can be added to pond areas “to help water travel in multiple directions, thereby speeding up evaporation.” Once a surface is cleaned and prepared, Garland says, “the product can be troweled out in minutes, without removal of existing roofing material.”
Garland product manager Rick Catley says Quick-Slope “is low-odor and non-volatile, so it can be applied without any disruption to the workplace, and with minimal waste.”
